So a little over a year ago a buddy gave me a Sunfire True Junior subwoofer with a beefy 8" driver. The driver and passive radiator are in great shape. The issue is the amp is shot. It just gives a slight hum when turned on and no bass. So I took it my usual audio repair place and the guy...

For those who been to my house you know I have a very odd shaped great room and I used to have a large gap in bass depending on where my sub was located. If in the front then the back of the room where I sit got weak bass and vice versa. So to combat that I bought a pair of Def tech BP7001's...

okay so a few months ago I bought a 65" Samsung UHD 4K set. I've really enjoyed the "up conversion" to simulated 4K on 1080p material like Bluray and Vudu HDX material. I've applied HDR Plus to this material as I have no media that takes advantage of true HDR like the new UHD bluray players...

anyone catching this one this weekend. I've read it has some epic battle scenes but haven't heard much more. As a Star Wars fan (saw the original as a ten year old over 50 times in the theater as a kid. So I'm going). Anyone else?

So as most of you know 15 years ago I joined our little group as I had just bought a Pioneer Elite 58"HDTV and needed guidance on how to get the most out of this TV. It started with the tv then you guys steered me towards surround sound and finally subs. Well even tho my Pioneer has an...

so I read on Facebook yesterday this new streaming video service where you can "legally" alter streaming movies that will allow you to edit movies of swear words, sex scenes or anything you may find offensive. Here's how they do it. You buy the movie for 20.00 then you can go into a category...

So I won a 50.00 Amazon gift card at work and after holding on to it for months I found something I could buy. I chose the SVS Soundpath Isolation feet. These rubber tipped feet screw right into the bottom of your sub and can support the weight of a SVS PB 13 sub. Since I already have two...

Well I finally gave up on HD-DVD yesterday and it was hard. Over the past year I was slowly adding my HD-DVD movies to Vudu and after finally converting all my movies (with the exception of three titles which are not disc to digital at all (The Deer Hunter, Pulse and We were Soldiers) We were...

So as most of you know I bought a new car and the first thing I did was add eight Alpine speakers and a outboard kicker amp to power the speakers. So after doing some reading I find that I can do better than my iPod nano (fifth generation) with a iPod classic 5 (not the beloved 5.5) but close...

Saw the new trailer I gotta say I'm pretty stoked to see this one. Haven't been this excited to see a movie since Empire came out.

I just noticed that all eleven seasons of NCIS are now on Netflix. I thought CBS was keeping a tight grip on that series for their CBS streaming service and of course syndicated runs on USA Network. I wouldn't have even known but I share my account with my mother whose a huge fan and she's...

So last week I mentioned how I bought a Roku for my master bedroom and this initiated a switching of gear where I moved my Smart Bluray player into my great room as when streaming Vudu it is quiter and doesn't use as much power as my PS 3. So I just hooked up my older PS 3 into my master...

I was given a 50.00 Best buy gift card for Christmas and was thinking about buying a Roku 3. Now I don't need a streaming player as my PS3 is currently installed to play Vudu (haven't played a Bluray disc in over a year as I buy all my movies in digital format and if I can buy a new title just...

So my Genie HD DVR started acting funny a few days ago by turning itself on and off at about every four hours and everytime it came back on it would say there was a hard drive error and would have to fix itself by doing a self check. So call Directv and they give me the usual useless steps...

This means in a few weeks all my Disney movies will now be able to be linked to my Vudu account. Was reading over at Vudu Forums that with the release of Guardians of the Galaxy and Maleficent that Disney is finally going to be DMA enabled. Now granted they still won't be Ultraviolet...

Wow what a premiere episode. Catwoman, The Riddler, Penguin, the Joker and Poison Ivy. I liked how they slipped in calling The Riddler the Enigma. I also liked how they made Gotham City so dark. Chris must be going ga-ga over this series. I hope hope hope in later episodes they bring in...

Been reading a lot on AVS about Atmos and how it's the next big thing for home and cinema audio. Now I've been to a local theater that added Atmos and during the THX clip before the movie it was impressive and felt it added a little to the film itself but not enough to get all excited. Then...

Just watched the premiere episode by Guillermo Del Toro. Holy smokes what a show. It got so scary the GF got up and said, "Nope that's it I'm going to bed. What a creepy series that has gore, zombies, a big ass vampire, Satan and enough creepiness to keep this show going. Kept me on the edge...
